Backdrop

Ok, so this’ll be my last bit of wedding blogging for a while. At least in terms of DIYs. Why? I think I’ve already made everything I can!

After finishing the hairpiece yesterday, I immediately started the next project: making a backdrop for our “photo booth”. We’ll be taking photos, but not in a booth. I’ve already made some props for it, but needed a background.

A couple of years ago we were at a friend’s wedding, and I loved their photo idea, it was so classy and beautiful. But as you know, I’m neither of those, so I’ve completely fallen for the quirky photo booth idea. I just didn’t know what to do for a background.

Once again – Pinterest is the best way to get ideas, and this time was no exception. (You can follow me on Pinterest here – I have loads of pins, not least wedding related ones 😉 )

I found one I really liked, you can see it in the gallery below. Now, all I had to do was to sew it…

I love the bottom right one!

My dedication to football knows no limits – sewing can’t stop me!

Strike a pose! Just giving it a go, to see that it works 😉

And……ta-da! I think it’ll be great – we just need to find a good place to hang it, and put someone in charge of photographing, then people can just goof away 🙂

You are very crafty! Great ideas! I’ve only recently discovered Pinterest and I LOVE it (minus a few glitches here and there)… You can follow me too. I don’t have any wedding ideas posted but I have lots of nursery ones! 🙂
